Jan: Finding high quality, made in the U.S. garments to print on has gotten progressively harder. Over the last 10-15 years, most large companies have shifted their production oversees, where regulations are lax and wages are cheap. This puts a strain on remaining U.S. mills that pay higher wages, resulting in more and more mills closing their doors. I'm always on the hunt for a new source!
